What is the *nix equivalent of win32 io.h ?

[groleo]

Hi. I'm trying to port a piece of code, written for win32, that uses
the
finddata_t structure.
Is there an equivalent , or a work-around, that implement finddata_t on
*nix
platforms?

Please ask your question in the appropriate newsgroup. Neither ISO C89
nor ISO C99 defines findata_t. Try asking your question in
comp.unix.programmer or somewhere else relevant.

Try asking on a Unix newsgroup (comp.unix.programmer for instance), and
describe there what the structure is meant to do and what you are trying
to achieve with it. I have no idea what finddata_t is supposed to do or
contain so I can't even guess at a Unix equivalent (I can tell you that
thre's nothing with that name in any of the include files on my system).

opendir(), readdir(), closedir() perhaps ?

I found some code that impliments those for DOS in terms of
finddata_t so that suggests that they are plausible Unix equivilents.

Er, how likely is it that three functions are the equivalent of a
typedef?

perhaps. The best answer would be to redirect the OP to
comp.unix,programmer and advise them to ask about what tehy really
want to do.
